Crete is steeped in ancient myth, much of it surrounding the Minoan people who lived here around 4,000 years ago. Their capital was Knossos – a mighty palace complex once ruled over by King Minos. It’s here that his mythical Minotaur lurked in a labyrinth, feeding on humans thrown into the tunnels. And on this morning trip, you’ll hear the fascinating stories linked to this eerie place, told in a fun style great for the whole family. Listen as your guide brings the weird and wonderful tales to life as you wander through the palace ruins. Afterwards, you'll visit the Cretan Thematic Park. The exhibits here include period outfits and recreated scenes from Greek mythology and everyday life - you'll even get to sample the kind of snacks that the locals ate in Minoan times.
